가속기나 토카막과 같은 거대한 진공 장치의 용기 내벽을 청정화 하기 위해서는 용기 전체의 열처리(굽기, Baking)와 글로우 방전(Glow discharge) 법을 병행하여 사용한다. Baking은 일반 기체(N2, O2, 그리고 CO2)와 물(H2O)의 탈착에 효과적이고, Glow discharge cleaning은 탄소(Carbon-based)와 산소(Oxygen-based) 화합물의 탈착에 효과적이다. 특히 Glow discharge cleaning의 경우에는 전극의 모양, 진공 용기의 재질과 모양, 전극간의 거리, 사용되는 반응 기체의 압력 등에 따라 그 효과에 큰 차이가 있으므로 다각적인 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 그림 1과 같이 시험용 스테인레스(AISI 304와 AISI 316LN) 진공 용기를 설치하고, 시험 용기의 한쪽은 배기 용기와 oriffice로, 다른 편은 불순물의 정성.정량 분석을 위해 RGA(Residual gas analyser) 용기와 oriffice로 연결하였다. 전체 시스템 중에서 배기 부분과 분석 부분은 15$0^{\circ}C$에서 24시간 가열하여 전체의 기저 진공도를 1$\times$10-8Torr로 하였다. 기저 진공도의 용기에 고순도의 반응기체 (He, Ar, Ar+He, Ar+H2, Ar+N2 등)를 주입한후, DC 전압(0.8~1.5kV)을 변화하며 글로우 방전의 최적조건을 찾았다. 방전 동안 시험용 용기에서 방출되는 반응 기체 이외의 기체를 RGA로 측정하였고 외부에 Thermocouple을 여러곳에 장착하여 온도 변화를 측정하였다. 이상의 결과로부터 진공 용기 표면적으로부터의 불순물 탈착(desorption)과 불순물 분석, 플라즈마와 내벽의 상호작용등에 대한 결론을 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 Baking과 Glow discharge cleaning을 동시에 수행하여 Baking 온도의 낮춤에 따른 영향 평가도 수행하였다.

The conditions of zone-melting method such as a sample travel speed in a furnace, content of Nd422, control of melting temperature, and heat-treatment with/without Ar gas for $NdBa_{2}Cu_{3}O_{7-\delta}$ superconductor was optimized, As a results, a $NdBa_{2}Cu_{3}O_{7-\delta}$ sample with a surface area of $25mm^{2}$ showed a good superconducting properties when its travel speed was 6 mm/h, The improvement of superconductivity added with 10~20 wt% of Nd422 phase increasing pinning effect was also shown. The critical current density, $J_{c}$ was remarkable affected by the condition of heat-treatment temperature of $NdBa_{2}Cu_{3}O_{7-\delta}$superconductor with/without Ar ambient gas.

This study was performed to investigate the deposition mechanism of SiO$_2$ by ArF excimer laser(l93nm) CVD with Si$_2$H$\_$6/ and N$_2$O gas mixture and evaluate laser CVD quantitatively by modeling. With ArF excimer laser CVD, thin films can be deposited at low temperature(below 300$^{\circ}C$), with less damage and good uniformity owing to generation of conformal reaction species by singular wavelength of the laser beam. In this study, new model of SiO$_2$ deposition process by laser CVD was introduced and deposition rate was simulated by computer with the basis on this modeling. And simulation results were compared with experimental results measured at various conditions such as reaction gas ratio, chamber pressure, substrate temperature and laser beam intensity.

The most important techniques in the synthesis of SiC/C function gradient material (FGM) are to control the SiC/C ratio and to obtain the moderate deposition rate. For these, various gas systems and flow rates were attempted and evaluated. It turned out that the CH4＋SiCl4＋H2 system was suitable for the deposition of SiC-rich layers, the C3H8＋SiCl4＋Ar system for the deposition of carbon-rich layers, and the C3H8＋SiCl4＋H2＋Ar system was good to deposit the layers between them.

Phosphorus doped hydrogenated microcrystalline silicon (${\mu}c$-Si:H) thin films were deposited by PECVD (Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapour Deposition) method using 10.2% $SiH_4$ gas (diluted in Ar) and 308ppm $PH_3$ gas (diluted in Ar). The structural, optical and electrical properties of the films were investigated as a function of substrate temperature(15 to $400^{\circ}C$) and RF power(10 to 120W). The thin film deposited by varing substrate temperature had columnar structure and microcrystalline phase. The volume fraction of microcrystalline phase in the films deposited at RF power of 80W, increased with increasing substrate temperature up to $200^{\circ}C$, and then decreased with further increasing substrate temperature. Volume fraction of microcrystalline phase increased monotonously with increasing RF power at substrate temperature of $250^{\circ}C$. With increasing volume fraction of microcrystalline, electrical resistivity of films decreased to 0.274 ${\Omega}cm$.

Quadrupole mass spectrometer는 부분압 측정 및 잔류기체 분석에 널리 이용되고 있는 장비이다. CO, H2, Ar이 혼합되어 존재할 때 quadrupole mass spectrometer의 감도를 10-4∼10-8torr영역에서 측정하고 단일기체로 존재할 때의 감도와 비교하였다. 그 결과 일정한 부분압을 유지하고 있는 경우라도, 주위 분위기 기체 종류와 부위기 기체 압력에 따라 감도 별화가 심한 것을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 QMS를 부분압 측정이나 조성분석에 이용하기 위해서는 이에 대한 특성조사가 반드시 필요하다.

Nano-multilayered $Cr_{25.2}Al_{19.5}Si_{4.7}N_{50.5}$ films were deposited on the steel substrate by cathodic arc plasma deposition. They were corroded at $900^{\circ}C$ in $Ar/1%SO_2$ gas in order to study their corrosion behavior in sulfidizing/oxidizing environments. Despite the presence of sulfur in the gaseous environment, the corrosion was governed by oxidation, leading to formation of protective oxides such as $Cr_2O_3$ and ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$, where Si was dissolved. Iron diffused outward from the substrate to the film surface, and oxidized to $Fe_2O_3$ and $Fe_3O_4$. The films were corrosion-resistant up to 150 h owing to the formation of thin ($Cr_2O_3$ and/or ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$)-rich oxide layers. However, they failed when corroded at $900^{\circ}C$ for 300 h, resulting in the formation of layered oxide scales due to not only outward diffusion of Cr, Al, Si, Fe and N, but also inward movement of sulfur and oxygen.

Cu-Cu thermo-compression bonding process was successfully developed as functions of the deposited Cu thickness and $Ar+H_2$ forming gas annealing conditions before and after bonding step in order to find the low temperature bonding conditions of 3-D integrated technology where the interfacial toughness was measured by 4-point bending test. Pre-annealing with $Ar+H_2$ gas at $300^{\circ}C$ is effective to achieve enough interfacial adhesion energy irrespective of Cu film thickness. Successful Cu-Cu bonding process achieved in this study results in delamination at $Ta/SiO_2$ interface rather than Cu/Cu interface.
